Crikey Ed I am coming over for a visit and going diving with you, that is just paradise for me - lead lead lead as well as bonus lures. Only thing I am in Australia LOL but a visit I should do LOL
Great video! The way those fish just hang out around you is crazy! I'm sure just on the other side of Hattie St. bridge is littered. There are always people there fishing, so I'm sure it's hard to sneak in there without fear of being snagged!
This is the third video I've watched. It's like you're pulling weed in a garden. Those fish are smart looking for a snack. Do you sell on the web or yard sales?
i want to get in to this hobby and help clean the environment like you're doing. i was just wondering what you use for gear and if you have any tips for a beginner?
Cool video!! I was wondering, do you only dive in relatively clear waters or can you dive in murky muddy waters like the Rock River or Mississippi River too? Thanks 👍
I can dive anywhere…that I’m familiar with. I have gone diving with ZERO visibility, but not in places that could be dangerous or that I don’t know well. I want to dive the Mississippi River this year!
My uncle pulled a string of lures, line and lead out of the wolf river while fishing white bass. It was about 5 feet long. Can't describe how bad it stunk.
@@EdtheDiveryea you can’t have it near you ether cuz if you breath its particles it could end up lethal or cause death avoid touching it and smelling it
So besides giving some away, what do you do with all that you find? I imagine some are ruined by the time you find them. But can you sell them? New get rich quick scheme? 🤣
I guarantee that it’s not a get rich quick scheme! Lol. I sell them again and then find them all over again. The ones with bad paint get stripped and re-painted, which can then be sold as “customs”. About 95 percent are still good and just need new hooks.
Not to be that guy but if that board can support you I’m sure it could support all that lead (I sound like an ass I just can’t pass up free lead so many uses)
I e pulled about 700 pounds out of there in the past 6 years actually. When I have my kayak with me, I can fill it up. That board flip when it gets too much weight in it. I’ve learned its limit a few times! 👍
That is so awesome
How cool to feed them crayfish haha
All marine-life look to be so comfortable around you, Ed! Truly heartwarming!❤! This is harmony between humans and nature at it's best!❤
Thanks! It’s pretty cool hanging with them!
Thank you for being an example for others and for protecting our beautiful planet. 👍 👌 🙏 ❤ 🌍
Thanks!
Those smallies are so curious, so funny watching them hang around 😆
They’re like little puppies! Lol
@@EdtheDiver oki gracias 🫂
when totally frustrated by fish - just through whole rod into river !!!! What a haul today !!!
🤣🤣👍
You where a Rock Star out the awesome video
Thanks! 😎👍
That was so cool when you found that stash!!
It’s a blast! Thanks for watching!
Amazing! That must be a popular fishing spot to have so many lures.
It sure is! Thanks for watching!!
That's awesome
Thanks!
You have a lot new nice friends there 😂😂🐟🐟
🤣 Yep!
Ed that was a Greattt video....them bass are something else...the little crawdad was hollering Sparta...lol.... amazing on the lure haul on this video
Thanks 👍 Those crawfish sure are brave! 🤣
Incredible Amount !!
The fish and that lure pile were so cool! I really enjoy watching all the treasure. Lots of fun!
Thanks! It’s always fun playing with the bass and finding all those lures!!
That anchor you found was probably mine I lost last year or the year before, good video buddy congrats on the Mega lure haul wow !!
Always a bad feeling when you lose your anchor! 😬 thanks for watching and commenting!!

Let me know when you’re in Wisconsin! 🤿👍
Dang you sacrificed the crayfish to the Smallmouth 😆. Great vid. So many lures!
It was a GOOD sacrifice! 😁
Great video! The way those fish just hang out around you is crazy! I'm sure just on the other side of Hattie St. bridge is littered. There are always people there fishing, so I'm sure it's hard to sneak in there without fear of being snagged!
Thanks! I get over there a few times a year, when it dies down. Treasure trove!!
Crazy amazy amount of lead
When I have my kayak, I try to grab it all. I can’t with the little board.
Q bueno este a yasgo de usted amigo regalame para pesca en el rio soy de costa rica pura vida
Sorry! I don’t ship to Costa Rica.
@@EdtheDiver hola 👋 yo no a blo hingles
@@surygarcia7835 no hablo espanol.
@@EdtheDiver wuaa
Keep up your good works of helping to keep our waters clean.
Nice luers you found that fish was telling you where the luers were at
Thanks! When you spend as much time underwater with fish like I do, you start to think you can communicate with them. 🤣 Maybe….it’s true!
Wow 🐟🐠🐡🎣 This is unreal ! What a awesome day for sure 👍Great job and so quick. Like seeing the fish all come around like that. So awesome to watch
Thank you! I’ve definitely grown to appreciate the underwater life a LOT more the past few years.
Now that's a great day in the water!
Heck yeah!
I love to recover all those tangled lures! What a score!
@@jamesmagmer8929 it’s a blast!
wow how is there so much lead in one place
The dam current pushes it to the lowest spot or into little pockets.
It's amazing how all the lead piles up like that
And that’s only a little pile!
Best Wetsuit Ever!!
Works well! 😁👍
im suprised based on how many craws and smallmouth that are down there that there wasnt any craw imitating jigs
They’d work awesome!
So much lead
It’s unbelievable!
This is the third video I've watched. It's like you're pulling weed in a garden. Those fish are smart looking for a snack. Do you sell on the web or yard sales?
🤣 I sell on edthediver.com May through February. Then, I mainly just sell locally during the walleye run. I can’t manage both at the same time.
What causes the lead to pile up like that? Current?
You are right! 😁👍
i want to get in to this hobby and help clean the environment like you're doing. i was just wondering what you use for gear and if you have any tips for a beginner?
I’ve got MANY tips! I’ll make a video of them. 😁👍
Do you ever see any big musky ?
Once in a great while.
If there is any gold in your area, where all that lead stacked up there should be a pile of gold also
I guess the lead and lures ARE the gold… 😃👍
Ever see a musky under the river?
A few times! 😁
@@EdtheDiver that's awesome
You should try pet one
@@dee6338 I will! 🤣
I can’t imagine what the fishing pressure must be like to have this many lures lost out there.
Very strenuous! 🤣
Cool video!! I was wondering, do you only dive in relatively clear waters or can you dive in murky muddy waters like the Rock River or Mississippi River too? Thanks 👍
I can dive anywhere…that I’m familiar with. I have gone diving with ZERO visibility, but not in places that could be dangerous or that I don’t know well. I want to dive the Mississippi River this year!
My uncle pulled a string of lures, line and lead out of the wolf river while fishing white bass. It was about 5 feet long. Can't describe how bad it stunk.
🤣 yeah…they stink once in a while. So do I after being in the river for an hour or so! 😁👍🤿🫧
Those bass are like dogs hanging around for the chance at scraps.
Dude! I just said something like that to someone on another channel! 🤣🤣
@@EdtheDiver divers up north here would be almost cheating to do spear fishing. The fish aren’t afraid of divers!
@@josephwatts8147 I used to want to spear fish, but I don’t know if I could anymore.
Is that the type of lead that is toxic
Sure not good for anything to eat it!
@@EdtheDiveryea you can’t have it near you ether cuz if you breath its particles it could end up lethal or cause death avoid touching it and smelling it
🎉🎉🎉NEW SUB❤️❤️❤️
AND IM ADDICTED 😍🥰
Awesome!! Thanks for subbing! 😃👍

@@EdtheDiver 700 pounds is crazy man what do you even do with it all?😂
@@BackwoodsGarageLLC. I have the supplies to melt it down and pour new weights, but no time. Sold it to a friend. 👍
@@EdtheDiver sweet heck yeah man that’s cool, be safe diving and have fun man
